Cork man who breached Protection Order was jealous, sad and paranoid after break-up

Feelings of jealousy, sadness and even paranoia caused a man to watch his ex-partner’s house in the early hours of the morning after the break-up of their relationship and he has been convicted of breaching a Protection Order.

Judge Olann Kelleher told the 42-year-old today that he would penalise him with a €200 fine and a similar fine for an earlier breach but warned that he would end up in jail if he breached it again.
